Page speed is among Google’s ranking factor. No doubt about it. In fact, they even have a dedicated page here that they consider fast load times especially in mobile devices.
I built this website with that in mind. Through the years of doing so, I’ve finally formulated a set of tasks that will give a WordPress site a 100 performance score in PageSpeed insight.

How I did it?
There are over 200 ranking factors that Google claims they use to rank a website. Speed is just one of them. So if you can at least optimize it for your WordPress site, then you have an edge.
Multiple factors enabled me to achieve this feat. I discovered a certain combination of Theme, content style, multimedia style, and plugins eventually led to a 100 score.
It was time-consuming to do trial and error to come up with a good set of settings combinations. It took me about a month to test all possible combinations and iterations of website settings.
